Default Re: National Records vs. the A.H.F.S.

The biggest problem with the A.H.F.S. is that it is to easy to get around. If you drive smart and don't care about things like records you can run a bogus car and be fast and never have to prove that the combo is legal. It is getting where NHRA doesn't even have the slips at National events. So unless you want to do something dumb like set the record and have NHRA look at all your stuff you can run almost anything bogus you want to. What would make A.H.F.S. work would be to have a tear down, pass, and be sealed with a date, If you take it apart after it is sealed it has to be checked again .Also if the you go fast enough to get the the combo horsepower it needs to be torn down and certified legal before they add horsepower. Do it at the division races of a random number of cars whether they were fast or not and you would have been torn down before you can run National events. And do it on the day before the race. Seems like a good idea to me.
